The Best of Eternal Haunted Summer: A Thirteenth Anniversary Edition

Rate this book
Hekate and Diana. Odin and Apollo. Freyja and the Witch-Lord.

Eternal Haunted Summer was born in the late summer of 2009. It was created as a place where Pagans and polytheists and witches (and non-Pagans with a love of the old myths) could feature their short stories and poems and essays with those of a like mind and similar beliefs and practices. EHS has grown steadily over the years, due entirely to the wonderful contributors whose works fill its digital pages. Without their creativity and talent, EHS would not exist; it would have disappeared long ago.

This thirteenth anniversary edition is a celebration of their work. I love every piece that appears in Eternal Haunted Summer, and I just wish that I could have included them all here. These poems, essays, and short stories range from tragic to triumphant, from exciting to despairing, from comic to horrific, from grotesque to sensual, from erotic to subtle; here you will find odes to terrible Gods, exciting tales of adventure, melancholy meditations on creation, and wonderings at the nature of human and divine hearts.

These are the best of Eternal Haunted Summer. I hope that you find them as inspiring as I do.

Like most anthologies, this was hit or miss for me.
Some highlights for me are The Ravens by Michaela Macha, Sigyn Dreams by Steven Klepetar, Sun-Gods's Crown by Jennifer Lawrence, Ghazal by Allister Nelson, The Last Libation by Daniel Stride.

As with all anthologies, I enjoyed some of 'em more than others. But oh, when it was good IT WAS GOOD. The Last Libation, in particular, took my breath away.
